i think that marc (not single-handedly, mind you) took the louis vuitton bag and propelled it into the twenty first century. without the quirkiness and innovation of the bags produced under his tutelage, i strain to see how the house of vuitton would still be relevant in the world of high-fashion.

the bags this season were a triumph of design, not only because they found yet another way to re-interpret the classic monogram, but because he did not rely on some artist to imbue the bags energy. he (and his team) did it themselves.

even though i dont find those particularly pretty, i wouldnt mind owning a few of them...
but the prices are way too insane. i am sure they will do a more affordable line like they always do each season. usually the catwalk designs are either not ALL produced or way too pricey

i thought they had a fun collection and an elegant collection, but apparently I was wrong. Is that it? The Collection of bags? I don't know what happened. I love the fun collection shown in the pic above but I say give us back the classic style, don't completely throw it out. You know?

I think the 4th bag is my fave!

Neither am I. And the bags that combine the classic logo print with embellishments (basically all the ones posted except for the blue) are pretty horrid, IMO. But do like a lot of the bags for Spring 2004. I enjoy the extravagance of it all...
